She Said

Here’s yet another one of those “apropos of nothing” moments… Collective Soul singing “She Said.”

This is the “official video,” which pales in comparison to the album track (which I cannot find.For the life of me.). Still and even, it’s good enough.I love the lyrics to this tune.And just in case you missed ‘em, here they are:

She said that time is unfairTo a woman her ageNow that wisdom has comeEverything else fades

She said she realizesShes seen her better days

She said she cant look backTo her days of youthWhat she thought were liesShe later found was truth

She said her daddy had dreamsBut he drank them awayAnd her mothers to blameFor the way she is today

lifes river shall rise, she saidthat only the strong shall survive, she saidbut Im feeling quite weak, she saidwill you comfort and forgive me, she said

She says shes still searchingFor salvations lightYeah, she wishes all dayAnd then, she prays all night

She said she wont speak of lovecause love, shes never knownAnd its moments like theseShe hates to be alone

lifes river shall rise, she saidthat only the strong shall survive, she saidbut Im feeling quite weak, she saidwill you comfort and forgive me, she said

lifes river shall rise, she saidthat only the strong shall survive, she saidbut Im feeling quite weak, she saidwill you comfort and forgive me, she said

lifes river shall rise, she saidthat only the strong shall survive, she saidbut Im feeling quite weak, she saidwill you comfort and forgive me, she said

Forgive meShe saidForgive meShe said

Good, innit?
